Chuggin.

Great week.

Kenneth was baptized!!! I
forgot to mention that when in his practiceinterview with us, we asked him
if he had ever committed a seriouscrime and he said yes.... my
heart sunk. I was like what could this16 year old boy have done?
Then we asked him what it was and he saidhe had drank... We were so relieved!!
That's not a serious crime!It was so tender. It was all
good and his baptism was great. Theyouth came and supported him and
sang in his baptism. Lovely spiritand testimony.

This week we met a Nigerian man
here for school. We were OYMing
him on a jeepney and he speaks English so it was cool. Then we found
out he was a minister for his church... Rhapsody of something.Sounded interesting. But I
liked this quote he said. "My life alone
is a testimony." He kept commending us for our desire to spread the
word of God. He was so cool and had the biggest hands when we shookhands... I completely agree with his perspective.
The way we live should

represent how we follow Christ.
It should be a testimony in itself. I hope others can observe that by
the way I live my own life.

Sister Sasuya's best friend who lives in Canada was the one who
referred her to the church and she came in town this past week! So
I got to meet her, so sweet. She is so strong and I am so thankful
for her sharing with the Sasuyas because they were a blessing and
example to me in my mission. So in other words, EVERYONE OF YOU
READING THIS SHOULD GIVE REFERRALS TO THE MISSIONARIES. ok now that
that is out there, lets move on.

One of my favorite things to see on the mission is when investigators
receive a personal witness of the things we are teaching are true. Itis the sweetest thing for them to
receive that answer from the Lord
and know it for themselves without a doubt.

This week we met a family from
Poland who is a diplomat in China on
vacation for the Philippines (what...) and they were like the rudest
people ever and it just sums up my love for Filipinos. I can talk to
anyone here and they are ALWAYS nice. I LOVE IT HERE.

Mom wanted some more details on my everyday life.
Basically heregoes: Morning, 6:30
am. Wake up everyday out of the deepest sleepthinking it was straight 4
minutes my head was on the pillow. Godownstairs. Sit down and
try to wake up. Do some exercises on thecold tile. Eat oatmeal.
And yes I am sick of it. Then personalstudy comes my way and I am
happy. I love reading the Book of Mormon.I am in 3 Nephi and am loving
it. Then Companionship study. ThenLanguage study.
Tagalogggggggg. Then lunch. Adobo or PB&J areusually my options. Then
we head out to work. Our days are usuallybooked with appointments but
when we get punted (no one is home oravailable) we go to our back
ups. Then we come home, plan, eat, anddie on our beds. And then
do it all over again. WOOOHOOOO I LOVEMISSIONARY WORK.

And I love all of you.
Life is swell and cant believe i have hit 10months... Nutz.
